Have you all seen an obvious pattern in the industry? EVERY rising female star, go through this disgusting phase where media tried to set them up and paint them as undeserving of all the success they have? I ainât joking. Letâs see the examples shall we;
1. The infamous Britney Spears meltdown.
Britney had a notorious, and fast rising career in the early 00âs. Her career peaked with the infamous single Toxic and Oops I Did It Again. But the following years, wasnât looking too good for her.

Starting from 2005, there were many, and i said MANY, media play used against her. Saying she was not a good wife, not a good mother, a sl*t, and untalented. She ended up having a huge meltdown and attacked the paparazi. She also create an iconic âdarkâ era called âBlackoutâ
2. The Lady Gaga âsatanicâ narrative.
Lady Gaga surprisingly makes a huge push early 10s. Another pop phenomenon i might say! She was rising fast, and rising bright! Few of them being âBad Romanceâ, âPoker Faceâ, and the notorious âBorn This Wayâ

A female woman rising that fast, what could be the reason? Her talent? Artistry? Vocal power? No! Itâs satanic deal of course! Everybody started picking and analyzing. This got a worldwide attention. Even LOTS and LOTS of nation was banning her to held a concert.
3. Selena âback-ridingâ Gomez
Another year went by in the early 10s, another young star start to arise. Selena started her career early, crafting her journey carefully until she had a deal with Disney and played main character in an Emmy-Winning series Wizard of Waverly Place!

Selena crafted her career slowly, in 2007-2009, she tackled both music and acting. Having 3 studio album under her belt with The Scene, and a contract with Disney, she was set to be another âdisney star breakthroughâ along with her peers Miley Cyrus, and Demi Lovato
But, in 2009, she met with Justin. And little did she know, the romantic journey will cost her a lot. Starting from 2010 until late 2015, she receives HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS hate tweets, slander against her was pushed by the industry, and everybody agrees with it.
Some of the things that were said back then against her, WOULD NEVER FLY in todayâs society. But the damage has been done, and she will NEVER be the same.
4. Miley Cyrus and her meltdown with the Wrecking Ball.
Miley is one of the young star rising in the early 10s. Who doesnât know her? âParty In The USAâ even blasted in every country outside the USA. Hannah Montana was every childrenâs favorite tv series.
Miley is one of the young star rising in the early 10s. Who doesnât know her? âParty In The USAâ even blasted in every country outside the USA. Hannah Montana was every childrenâs favorite tv series.
But everybody starts questioning her whether sheâd be sufficient enough to survive in the industry, everybody starts pitting her with her peers. She was a teenager rising in the industry, but she had enough, and release the infamous âWe Canât Stopâ and âWrecking Ballâ in 2013
The SOCIETY didnât accept this. And what do they do? See it for yourself. And i will say it again, if it were to happen in todayâs society, it WOULD NEVER FLY the way it did. Everybody was eager to stripped Miley down from her success. It felt like a race or competition almost.
5. Taylor Swift
Taylor also of of the many artists that started her career early. She had a top 10 hit at the age of 16 with âTim McGrawâ. But her career catapulted following the release of âFearlessâ that puts her in mainstream media. In 08 she already sold 4M copies of albums

Everybody is seeing her, and everybody hates her. The narrative of her being a âserial daterâ start to arise. Accusing her to be someone who needs to be in a relationship to write great hits. People were trying to stripped her down of her talent, trying to draw her incompetent.
The cherry on top of the whole âundeserving success of Taylor Swiftâ narrative was the childish act of Kanye West. Interrupting her in the middle of her acceptance speech, and bluntly implied that she did not deserve the award in 2009.
But it doesnât end there for Ms. Swift! In 2016 a huge allegation against Taylor being a hypocrite was released by big names. It sparked an internet breakthrough, celebrating the disgusting tag #/TaylorIsOverParty (which we all know, sheâs FAR from over now
)

6. Rihanna
Now weâve come to Queen of late 2000 hits. In 2007, Rihanna introduce her third studio album âGood Girl Gone Badâ. The album gives her a lot of hit songs, she made one of the most critically acclaim album of the decade. And she gives us âUmbrellaâ

Along with her journey, there was a LOT of pressure and media play being made against her. Starting from the classic sl*t-shaming, and racism, also people starting to doxxed her and try to stripped her from her success using the disgusting âillegal immigrantâ narratives.
But one of the MOST ridiculous thing to stripped her down from her ârisingâ moment, was again, a satanic deal to push her career. (MIND YOU, as ridiculous as this sound, people ATE this kind of news back in the day). The hit âUmbrellaâ was accused of some sort a âcurseâ song
People were blaming her for the continuous rain, because they correlate the heavy rain has something to do with âUmbrellaâ topping the chart... INSANE.
6. BLACKPINK
One of the fast rising pop phenomenon. And one of the latest girl act in music industry that has been taking the attention of world-wide audience. BLACKPINK debuted back in 2016. Into 4 years of their career, they achieved many huge things!
One of the fast rising pop phenomenon. And one of the latest girl act in music industry that has been taking the attention of world-wide audience. BLACKPINK debuted back in 2016. Into 4 years of their career, they achieved many huge things!
BLACKPINK is one of the 3rd generation of K-Pop Wave. They debuted under YGE (notoriously known for their hip-hop influenced music, and organic way of showcasing their artistsâ talent). So far, YGE has successfully debuted every artist under them. One of them being BLACKPINK.
In the early age of their career, BLACKPINK made a lot of domestic impact. Even before their debut, the arrival of a new girl group from YGE has already been anticipated. People were WAITING, because YGE already promised that theyâre the successor of the legendary 2NE1
By the time of their debut, BLACKPINK automatically sweeps the domestic chart. They are known to be the only group to have PAK upon their debut in that age. BLACKPINK also one of the fastest group to win a music show trophy! And sealed their presence by winning Rookie of The Year
They are loved and supported by fans. But not until 2018, where they came back with their first mini Square Up. People start questioning the authenticity of their success, people start to claim that their mediocre music didnât deserve the worldwide stage.
From 2018 onwards, the discussion whether BLACKPINK deserves their success continues. They pick and choose on new groups/people who deserves BLACKPINKâs success. They were once a fan, but once they get bigger than they expected, they became a hater.
I can go on and on for days, but from here i guess you know what iâm trying to say. Itâs no old news that people (especially men) still have this unconscious thoughts that women canât be superior. That women canât have freedom. Or donât deserve success.
The prove is there whether you like it or not. Itâs the reality. You can see not only in the music industry, but you can see it from any other domain. Oppression has always been something that is systemic, the pattern is there, the victim is in front of your eyes.
Itâs only up to you whether you want to see it or not, but you cannot say what happen is not real. Itâs very much real. Iâm open to discussion, and anyone who wants to add to the list as new examples, go ahead. Itâs time we realize that these talented women deserves more.
